NYPD Sergeant's Vulgar Rant Caught on Camera

A uniformed NYPD sergeant was busted for launching into an offensive tirade against a group of Brooklyn men, threatening to fire at them with his gun while condoning their bad behavior.

According to the New York Post, Sgt. Lesly Charles approves of some criminal activity while on his shift, as long as he is addressed with respect.

“You guys are hustling or whatever, I ain’t got no problem with that,” Charles says in the video supposedly filmed by one of the men being threatened, a 21-year-old who chose to remain anonymous. “Listen, do your thing…but when I come around and I speak, you f*cking listen. Tell your boys.”

The overbearing sergeant was reported to be upset by a car that was illegally parked on Ditmas Avenue in the Kensington section of Brooklyn. Charles proceeds to follow the group into a Chinese food restaurant, continuing his verbal assault. “Your pretty face — I like it very much. My d*ck will go in your mouth and come out your ear. Don’t f*ck with me. All right?”

An NYPD spokeswoman said the department is investigating the incident.

The vulgar rant runs for 20 minutes on a cell-phone recorded video. Watch the footage below.

It seems like everyone has their thoughts on the longtime sexual misconduct allegations against R. Kelly, which became headline news after a documentary aired on Lifetime at the top of the month.

Da Brat is the latest voice to chime in, and while she's not siding with the Pied Piper of R&B, she is questioning the parents of the alleged victims.

“I do think he needs help,” she told TMZ's cameraman at the Trumpet Awards in Atlanta on Saturday (Jan. 19). “I love him. I grew up with him. He’s kinda like family. We had the same music teacher. We were around the same circles as kids. I’ve never seen him do anything bad, but I don’t believe all these people are lying.

“But at the same time, where are the parents?" she continued. "So, I think he needs help for sure. I love him. I hope he don’t get mad at me and I think the parents need to take responsibility. Where is your 14-year-old child? Why are you there? Something wrong with that.”

This weekend, Erykah Badu made comments regarding R. Kelly during a concert. She attempted to clarify her comments on social media, writing “I want healing for you and anyone you have hurt as a result of you being hurt. Is that strange to you? That’s all I’ve ever said. Anything else has been fabricated or taken out of context.”

Positive actions have arrived since the releases of Hulu and Netflix's documentaries, including a GoFundMe dedicated to raising money for the Bahamian people who were never paid for their services.

The release of Netflix's FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened introduced Maryann Rolle, a caterer who worked for Billy McFarland to feed those planning the festival. Rolle stated in the documentary how she was forced to dip into her savings which totaled $50,000, to pay staff after never receiving compensation from the festival's creators.

It's a stark reminder of how influencers like Kendal Jenner were paid ($250,000) in comparison to those who didn't get paid at all.

"I had ten persons working directly with me, just preparing food all day and all night, 24 hours," Rolle said. "I had to literally pay all those people. I am here as a Bahamian and they stand in my face every day."

Both a co-owner and caterer of the Exuma Point Resort with her husband, the Rolles plead for help in the GoFundMe's bio, expressing that she had worked to create "no less than 1000 meals per day" back in April 2017 and has since never received a dime.

"As I make this plea it's hard to believe and embarrassing to admit that I was not paid...I was left in a big hole! My life was changed forever, and my credit was ruined by Fyre Fest," Rolle and her husband, Elvis, wrote. "My only resource today is to appeal for help," the couple wrote.

With the foundation's original goal set at $123,000, the campaign has made nearly $138,000 in seven days with the help of 4,286 donations.

The Fyre Festival was originally meant to be a VIP destination music event housing acts like G.O.O.D Music and Major Lazer, but the fiesta turned out to be a fiasco with unfurnished tents and an estimated $27.4 million scam against investors.

Originally delivered by Monica and Brandy, "The Boy Is Mine" shook up the late '90s with a powerful duet between two women fighting for one man, now over 20 years since the electric debut, the single has received the millennial treatment.

Performing at the 2019 Trumpet Awards in Atlanta on Saturday (Jan. 19), Justine Syke and Sevyn Streeter recreated the work of Darkchild producer, Rodney Jerkins, who created the track 21-years-ago. Streeter dominated Brandy's portion of the single, while Skye released her inner Monica.

Jerkins, who is credited for working with the likes of Whitney Houston, Toni Braxton, Destiny's Child and more, was honored with the Music Excellence Award during Saturday’s ceremony. The award ceremony will air Feb. 11 on Bounce TV. T.I., MC Lyte, and Dapper Dan are among other powerful figures in music to be honored during this celebration.
